Viewing event logs without restarting the server

If the server is not hung, methods are available for you to view one or more event logs without restarting the server.

If IPMItool is installed in the server, you can use it to view the system-event log. Most recent versions of the Linux operating system come with a current version of IPMItool.

The following table describes the methods that you can use to view the event logs, depending on the condition of the server. The first two conditions generally do not require that you restart the server.
